ABSTRACT:
A panel mounted electrical connector includes a plastic housing with flexible latches that are driven inwardly as the connector is forced into an aperture in a panel and spring outwardly to engage the edge of the panel aperture to hold the connector in place. The latches include interior recesses containing surfaces engaged by an integral stop contained entirely within the profile of the recesses to limit bending of the latches and resulting failure caused by pulling loads applied to the connector. The latches and stops have a configuration facilitating the provision of applying a sealing member onto the panel and the connector.
